i have just about decided to give up the guest bed. in a 1200 sq ft 2 bedroom bungalow- a HUGE corner of one room is being dominated by a queen size bed for once a month guests? Its kinda B.S.! I have decided that I am under no obligation to provide them with feather beds and down comforters. It might be air mattress city for those who stay at my house from here on out....

I say you sell the bed on Craigslist and buy a Murphy bed, because now they have so many that when in the "up" position (aka put away), reveal great secondary desk spaces, cabinets and other neat things.

Then you keep the bed aspect, but gain desk top space (which I can tell is sorely needed, what with all your book-on-bed piles), and you'll have more room to move about the room!

I must confess, my guestroom bed acts as an additional table top too, for my ever growing office (yes, a bit of organizing would do me some good)!Found you through Erika at Urban Grace. Look forward to reading more
